1. Keitel C.

“Keitel and his family were amazing. I honestly don’t think my dog wanted to come back! Keitel was attentive to Bugsy’s needs and made him comfortable during his stay. I will definitely be using him again.”


2. Zhou L.

“I highly recommend Zhou. I agree with all of the other reviews. Zhou took a wonderful care of my dog Xingfù. Zhou sent many photos and videos where it was obvious that Xingfù was happy and enjoyed himself My only complaint is that Xingfù had such a good time. I wasn’t sure that he wanted to come back to my boring house.”


3. Sasha G.

“Sasha was great, she sent me pics, walked my dog, and let her sleep on the couch, I would reccomend sasha to any one looking to have someone take care of their pup.”


4. Aurora C.

“Bentlee has the best time and I enjoyed getting updates and pictures/videos.”


5. Roselyn S.

“Where do we begin! Roselyn cared for our dog, Parker, for 10 days while we were vacationing. We, along with Parker, were invited to meet Roselyn and her “pack” beforehand, providing the opportunity to ask any questions we had. Roselyn took note of every aspect of Parker, asking us very important questions and ensuring us his daily routines and norms would be mirrored as much as possible. While caring for Parker, she sent us numerous photos and videos of him from throughout each day, recapping every aspect of his day and fun with her and her pack! It was immediately obvious he was having so much fun and was very comfortable and happy! Peace of mind is what every pet owner wants when leaving them in someone else’s care. Without question, Roselyn truly went above and beyond in providing us that, caring for Parker like he was her own. We will ABSOLUTELY be going to Roselyn to care for Parker in the future! Thank you so much, Roselyn - Jingo - MJ - Colo - Ze!!!”


6. Dennis L.

“Dennis took care of our dog, Kuna, for the second time and it was a 10-day stay. He took excellent care of her! It is obvious that she loves to go to his house as she gets excited when she sees us packing her bags to go. He has a great routine for her and takes her on walks. He communicates with us and sends pics and updates while we are gone. I highly recommend him.”


7. Zachery L.
“Zach has been so wonderful with my two dogs whenever I take them over to him. He's really good at putting them first and making sure they get their nutrients and play time. He tends to brush them too so when I get my babies back they're so soft!!”


8. Darian M.


“Darian took the absolute best care of my pups. She updated me regularly through out the weekend with lots of pictures and videos. She made sure they felt at home and comfortable while in her care. I will 100% recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter and will be using her again in the future.”


9. Tamber R.

“So warm & friendly. My dog who is usually unsure about new people liked her right away. Her dogs and cats are very chill, too. She sent pictures and it was a great experience.”


10. Debra S.
“Debra has cared for my dogs many times over the years. Her ability to responsibly and lovingly care for my mini dapple and naughty beagle make my work trips so much easier and I can relax knowing Bitzi and Nessi are safe and loved!”


11. Gaby M.

“I have used Gaby multiple times for both of our dogs and she does an amazing job. They always come back happy and she always proves photos. Would highly recommend!”


12. Tanya S.

“Our new puppy, Skye, had such a great time! Tanya was amazing sending daily pictures and updates. Her yard and house was perfect for a new puppy to get lots of energy out. Will definitely book with Tanya again.”


13. Lilly S.

“Lilly was GREAT with my little fur baby while I was gone. She kept me up to date with everything that was going on, and my baby looked like she had a blast! Lilly was also so kind to accommodate last minute.”


14. Heather G.

“Heather is wonderful!! I always go back to her. I am 100 % satisfied and I feel She and her family take great care of my dog. I highly recommend her! ❤️”




15. Laura K.

“Laura did a wonderful job caring for our dog. He was there a week and she made extra efforts to make him feel comfortable. He doesn’t usually eat well when we are away and she patently worked with him. She sent us 1-2 updates with pictures every day. She even gave him a bath the day we picked him up! We hope she will be available the next time we need a pet sitter.”


16. Katharine B.

“Katherine was a wonderful Rover boarder for our Lucy girl. She communicated with us as needed and sent a picture to give us peace! Loved her and her kiddos! We plan to board with her again!!”


17. Brooke I.

“Brooke did such a wonderful job! We had no issues and she always responded super fast and took amazing care of our pup. I would 100% reccomend her!!”


18. Eric K.
“If you’re looking for someone to care for your dog in times that you cannot, look no further. I’ll be honest i am a long time friend of Eric’s which is why my testimonial should hold a lot of merit. I’ve met a lot of dog lovers, and also pretend dog lovers. Hands down i have never met a person that loves and feels for animals more than Eric. I can confidently say that your four-legged friend will receive the utmost love and care while under Eric’s supervision.”


19. Keely F.


“Keely and Chris were OUTSTANDING! Keely made us feel comfortable from the moment we walked in her door. She was knowledgeable about dog behaviors of all kinds. She kept us informed throughout the weekend with text messages, pictures and videos. Our dogs had SO much fun! We will absolutely be booking with Keely and Chris again when we go out of town. THANK YOU!!!!”


20. Ron G.


“Thank you, Ron. I was more than pleased with how my pups were taken care of and with the frequent communications both prior to and during their stay. I'll definitely do this again when a similar travel need arises.”
